We completed 5 cams before starting with these 25 so it's really 30 cams total:
TX1, IXUS 60, 65, 75, 100 (worked on in another thread)

Here are the cams that miss the feature, behind them are my FW versions:

G7      100I   Feature(s) tested OK (bug with ETR and full shutter press without AF unresolved, committed, note added)
A640   100B   Feature(s) tested OK
A620   100F   Feature(s) tested OK
A720   100C   Feature(s) tested OK, previous ETR / video mode bug resolved
A650   100D   Feature(s) tested OK
A700   100B   Feature(s) tested OK
A1100   100B   Feature(s) tested OK
A1000   100B   Feature(s) tested OK
A2000   100C   Feature(s) tested OK
A460   100D   Feature(s) tested OK
A450   100D   Feature(s) tested OK
A430   100B   Feature(s) tested OK
IXUS980 (SD990)   100E   Feature(s) tested OK
IXUS960 (SD950)   100D   Feature(s) tested OK worked on it in another thread. (re-worked here)
IXUS900 (SD900)   100C   Feature(s) tested OK
IXUS750 (SD550)   100G   Feature(s) tested OK
IXUS700 (SD500)   101B   Feature(s) tested OK
IXUS800 (SD700)   100B   Feature(s) tested OK
IXUS860 (SD870)   100C   Feature(s) tested OK worked on it in another thread.
IXUS30 (SD200)   100K   Feature(s) tested OK
IXUS50 (SD400)   101B   Feature(s) tested OK
IXUS40 (SD300)   100K   Feature(s) tested OK
IXUS55 (SD450)   100D   Feature(s) tested OK
IXUSIZOOM (SD30)   100G   Feature(s) tested OK
S2IS      100F   Feature(s) tested OK

NOTE: Besides ETR we also tested/fixed the USB Remote feature and shooting DNG without waiting for AF (immediate full shutter press) on all of the cameras.

Koshy had a little ELPH which wasn't white as snow but everywhere that Koshy went the ELPH was sure to go. (actually an SD, but that detail ruins the rhyme...)

A640 100b test version:
- Simpler loader code
- capt_seq.c rewritten using code_gen.
- exp_drv_task support.

Please test the following:
- Verify long exposure
- Verify that a DNG is saved when you press the shutter quickly without waiting for auto-focus
- Verify USB remote switch operation:
CHDK menu -> CHDK Settings -> Remote Parameters
Enable Remote [ * ]
Switch Type [ OnePush ]
Control Mode [Normal ]

To simulate USB trigger, it is possible to use a USB cable connected to the PC.
Put camera in REC Mode, and exit CHDK ALT mode. Plug USB cable in camera port (camera goes to half press mode), unplug USB (camera goes to full press mode, and takes a photograph).

A640 100b test version:
- Verify long exposure
Done, 00:01:31 in closet worked fine.

- Verify that a DNG is saved when you press the shutter quickly without waiting for auto-focus
Yes, that works. 5 full presses => 5 DNGs

- Verify USB remote switch operation
That also works. Thank you very much for the detailed instructions. Worked right away with that.
Koshy had a little ELPH which wasn't white as snow but everywhere that Koshy went the ELPH was sure to go. (actually an SD, but that detail ruins the rhyme...)
